Hi all,
How to set the entry in a specific column must in date type and checking for this date must in a specific month? e.g. in the sheet name "Feb", all the date in column in "A" other than February will not be accepted and prompt a dialog box to ask the user to use another sheet.. Thanks |

You could create data validation for the column, let's say column E for this
example, with a custom type and a formula of =MONTH(E1)=MONTH(DATEVALUE("01-"&MID(CELL("Filename",A1),FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1))+1,99)&"-"&YEAR(TODAY()))) -- --- HTH Bob (there's no email, no snail mail, but somewhere should be gmail in my addy) "jimmy" wrote in message ...

Filename is an argument to the Cell worksheet function telling it to return
the fully qualified path and filename of the workbook (and the sheet name). However, it returns nothing unless the workbook has been saved once (so it has a fully qualified path and filename). -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "jimmy" wrote in message ... Sorry, what is "filename" for?

First, the sheet must have a Month name, so change Sheet3 to Mar
Put this in cell E1 of the sheet named Mar (don't change the formula - don't replace "filename") =MONTH(DATEVALUE("01-"&MID(CELL("Filename",A1),FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1))+1,99)&"-"&YEAR(TODAY()))) Now select Column A of the sheet named Mar go to Data=Validation Select Custom and in the textbox put in the formula =Month(A1)=$E$1 and click OK. -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "jimmy" wrote in message ...

This will vary the validation based upon the sheet name, so you can apply
the same formula to all sheets, not a different one to each. -- --- HTH Bob (there's no email, no snail mail, but somewhere should be gmail in my addy) "jimmy" wrote in message ... Thank you..
